Movie Makers: A Filmmaking Workshop for Kids

Presented by the Alabama Filmmakers Co-op (a.k.a. The Film Co-op)

Three consecutive Saturdays:
July 12, 19, and 26
Ages 12 to 15. Class size is limited.

The Film Co-op, in association with Workshop Director, Don Tingle, will once again host the 4th annual "Movie Makers: A Filmmaking Workshop for Kids" on Saturdays in July (12, 19, 26). The workshop is geared for kids from 12 to 15 years old. The fee for participation is $100 and includes all materials and snacks during the workshop.

Please note: Due to parent concerns that the first Saturday is July 5th (a holiday weekend), and that school starts the first week in August, we are reducing the workshop to just 3 days. This also allows us to keep the fee to only $100 for another year.

This intensive immersion style workshop will provide hands-on demonstrations of movie making techniques that kids can use to make their own movies or video projects. Movie making is a Team Sport that fosters leadership, responsibility, cooperation, organizational skills and an active imagination. Movie making offers a chance for all kids to compete in film festivals while also learning communications skills that will last a lifetime. Techniques learned in this workshop can also help students create video reports and documentaries for school projects. All participants will receive a DVD of the final product.
